Well, these guys have been publishing in hardcover for a long
time, though Leonard did publish paperback originals before
he became really famous. I thought the question referred to
current writers of paperback originals who might one day
become recognized as masters. All four gentlemen above are
established authors and hardly need to be discovered.
To give this some content: Constantine's _Mud Blood_ is very,
very good. I'm enjoying it tremendously. This one is
definitely hardboiled.
